[quote=Anonymous]Well my kid is PK (we're in DCPS) and the answer is that DL is useless for this age group. I guess you could say we "supplement" in that we spend time with our kid and read to her sing songs and do activities where she learns things. But we'd be doing that if she was in in-person PK. I don't like how much screen time she gets with DL and thus we don't do much of it.

The truth is that we budgeted for her to be in public PK this year and since she is not, this has been a big challenge for us. We did not have the money for private PK or daycare in the fall. We've managed to piece together funds for the spring semester, but now we are on multiple waitlists and I'm not holding my breath for a spot (though you never know). So for us, the biggest deficiency really is childcare, followed closely by socialization for our DD, though I don't worry as much about that because I don't think it's a big deal if she doesn't get it until next year. But the loss of childcare has been pretty challenging.[/quote]
